Profiles in Pittsburgh this is a wonderful video with you speaking of your 25th together and the love you have for one another. So happy birthday my brother Otis Williams. It's 2022 and I've been speaking with our congressman my door who's put in 35 years in Congress and now retired come January and will be on my program profiles in Pittsburgh Pittsburgh Community television station Comcast 21 Verizon 47 Channel. Our Congressman will speak about the Temptations cuz he loves you also. He plays the piano. He also his son with his friend Paul the Righteous Brothers song WoW so maybe he can retire and sing a song with you Otis when you come back through Pittsburgh. Love you all sister Nora Rose Parker

Otis Williams and Melvin Franklin was the original members of the group for many years. Then, it was Eddie Kendricks, Paul Williams and finally, David Ruffin.
The original Temptations were: Otis Williams, Elbridge Bryant, Melvin Franklin, Eddie Kendricks, and Paul Williams. They started in 1960 as The Elgins. Since Paul’s death in 1973, Elbridge’s death in 1975, Eddie’s death in 1992, and Melvin’s death in 1995, Otis Williams is the last original surviving founding member of the group.
Good question. What's interesting is that a year later Dennis Edwards would come back to the group for a short sprint. To my understanding he was only there temporarily until Ali was ready to come back.
Rest In Peace ✌️ Melvin Franklin and Richard Street and the rest of the Temptations who are deceased. Temptations Forever!!!!!!
Otis Williams still here
Otis is the only surviving temp.

Fabulous performer Ron. What a voice.
Very true
Ron Tyson is certainly a great performer and singer. Keep doing your best Ron. May God bless you.

Otis Williams and Melvin Franklin was the original members of the group for many years. Then, it was Eddie Kendricks, Paul Williams and finally, David Ruffin.
so was Richard, except he left before they were called The Temptations
And original member Elbridge "Al Bryant. Who was fired on New Years Eve 1963.
The original Temptations were:
Otis Williams,
Elbridge Bryant,
Melvin Franklin,
Eddie Kendricks,
and
Paul Williams.
They started in 1960 as
The Elgins.
Since Paul’s death in 1973,
Elbridge’s death in 1975,
Eddie’s death in 1992,
and Melvin’s death in 1995,
Otis Williams is the last original
surviving founding member of the group.
@@jaylene.turner6524 yes before Paul Williams took his own life and Eddie before went solo
@@NathanAHogan
No,according to Otis,
Elbridge was fired during a rehearsal a few weeks
after his NYE fight
with Paul Williams.
Love these guys ♥️
Love you all always
😢very humble group...
Team Otis 💜💪🏿💜💪🏿💜😘
Where is Ali Ollie Woodson? He was part of the group then.
Good question. What's interesting is that a year later Dennis Edwards would come back to the group for a short sprint. To my understanding he was only there temporarily until Ali was ready to come back.
They sang good.
❤
I loved David Ruffin, but he made it impossible for the rest of the guys.

Leave David alone ..THE CLASSIC 5"COULD NEVER BE REPLACED
I love 💕 David ruffin also

wait, which member hit Paul Williams in the head with a wine bottle ???
Al bryant
Elbridge Bryant...
Why the white man sitting and moving in so close
Ain’t nobody coming to see you Otis
🤣🤣 David Ruffin got so full of himself! Because of that, the Group "offed" him! 😆🤣😆
Very few statements could be farther from the truth. And, they are still coming to see Otis.
@@SuperCoolmack it’s a line from the movie🙄
@@DVPerry220 were you there
Well they are STILL coming to see Otis so there’s that
